8. Washington Wizards

This is the first blockbuster deal on our list and it completes a deal that has been talked about for nearly a year now. Bradley Beal is easily one of the most talented players who could be on the trading block this season and the Warriors are in a prime position to negotiate for him.

The Washington Wizards have been avoiding a full rebuild a long time now but it might be time for them to bite the bullet and blow this thing up. The easiest way to do this would be trading Beal, who has the highest trade value of anyone on the roster.

A package of Andrew Wiggins, the 2nd overall pick and Minnesota’s 2021 first round pick could get the deal done. While Washington might receive more appealing offers from other teams, this is a strong collection of assets from the Dubs that will at the very least deserve consideration.

Beal will be an instant fit with Golden State as he delivers the type of offensive firepower that can help them dominate once again. Securing the 9th pick also allows the Warriors to draft a defensive-oriented player deeper into the lottery and continue building their young core.
